Not a perfect novel, but still highly compelling. It could have been a tiny bit shorter.

Enjoyed this much--not as much as lush life but good read.

Excellent; a fantastic story line combined with realistic and intriguing characters. It is unusual to get both in a book. I look forward to reading more by this perceptive author.

Price is cut from the same cloth as Elmore Leonard. I reread several sentences out loud just to hear them. Great story and the writing is second to none.

Really excellent. I was worried after I didn't enjoy the last Price novel I read, but this is really great - keeps you guessing and, by the end, on the edge of your seat.

More incidental than the other Price novels that I've read, but still fine stuff.
